Accessibility

Connecting to NTNU through VPN is only available for NTNU’s students and staff. Not all distributions are supported by Cisco. If you have problems installing Cisco Anyconnect on Linux, you can try OpenConnect.

Note: There is a bug that makes version 9.0 of OpenConnect not work on Linux. Version 9.01 works.

Installation

sudo apt install network-manager-openconnect-gnome

Use the integrated GUI tool to set up VPN.

To connect from the CLI, type "sudo openconnect --useragent=AnyConnect vpn.ntnu.no".
